Ospamox (amoxicillin) is a penicillin antibiotic used to treat bacterial infections, including streptococcal tonsoiditis. In the case of a child weighing 24 kg, the dosage of Ospamox 250 mg 3 times a day for 8 ml is correct.
If, according to your calculations, the last dose should be taken before the morning of May 17, I encourage you to consult your pediatrician again to confirm that the last dose was administered. If the dosages have been misinterpreted or the recommendations have been unclear, your doctor may adjust your treatment plan to ensure proper efficacy and safety.
